I think you did a very credible job on the recheckering of the stocks. May I suggest next time you restore Colt stocks you use a dark or medium/dark Walnut stain? They will come out matte, which is how they should appear from the factory.

WDKline did a job that deserves compliments considering that he used a paint. I went on record stating I would have left the gun just as it was, but it is his choice. Nothing but a perfect factory anodizing would have been acceptable for me, and that simply isn't done at Colt and S&W anymore. But I try to respect what another person wants to do with his own property.

Collecting semantics aside, your finished product looks quite attractive. I hope you are pleased with it.

I can tell you he did a better job with paint than Ford's did reanodizing Bullstone's Courier, and he spent a lot more for that job than paint costs.
